Practice question
A heavily loaded HGV enters a bend too quickly and the driver brakes sharply while steering. Why is this especially risky?
- Weight transfer, high centre of gravity, and load movement can combine to cause loss of control or rollover
- The vehicle's speed limiter stops working only during bends
- Braking while steering always shortens stopping distance
- The tachograph will automatically apply the parking brake
Answer: A — Weight transfer, high centre of gravity, and load movement can combine to cause loss of control or rollover
